That gorilla pounding its chest has sort of a hollow sounding noise coming from it.

Those missile compartments on that dropship didn't make sense back then, but still way better than most dropships today.

Looks cool tho.
When the dropship crashed, done few explosions.
Surprised didn't make tons of explosions all those missiles..

Like when Ripley threw her ammos in the fire around the Queen's nest, made tons of explosions.

If you're ever bored, tell your parents. They'll punch an orphan.

Plastic signs are more expensive than websites.

Also a lot more limited when it comes to providing information.

Spiders eh? Have been planning on getting a G.Pulchra at some stage since my T.Gigantea died from old age.

In case anyone wondered, this is what I want;

How long did your pet spider lived?

#20421

Probably about 1.5-2 years total, T.Gigantea is a relatively small domestic species that don't have very long lifespans. As such she was actually quite old by the time she died, still have photos though;

Oddly she never bothered to use the various hides I left in the enclosure, though she did dig the fake plants up and move the stones around. Also that poor cricket didn't stand a chance, these are quite possibly the fastest spiders in the world so prey has little chance of escape once it enters the web, especially at the mercy of those fangs, it tends to all be over very quickly.
Still, ended up with around 100 more of them, so there's that. They're all gone now though, with them being a native species I raised these as far as I could and just allowed them to wander off, kept one male until he matured and let him wander away too.
This guy has videos of the same species.


The house and shed have a decent number of spiders in anyway, not much point in removing them as they're free pest control. This terrace stinks and flies are a big problem, as are moths and woodlouse, but they're not a problem for me because all the holes where they can get in are occupied by rather fat spiders of varying species, which seems to be an effective and cheap solution. At most I'll move them if they get in my way, had a Scotophaeus Blackwalli that kept running on the sofa while I was trying to sleep a few days ago, just picked it up and moved it to another room. Occasionally get people freaking out because there's a false widow living on the window frame, but like most species here they're harmless to humans.

I see.
Turatuala probably has the longest among spiders.
Some species live ~10 years.
Some 15-25.

been reports that some lived over 42-46 years

good to leave it be. They have been known to kill real black widows.
We get them here in Washington State. I only thin the herd when they overrun my tool shed and I can't get at my stuff. The yellow-jackets seem to avoid them as well which is fine, 'cause I can't stand those little cunts with wings. They hardly ever sting me, but they always want to buzz around my face when I'm outside doing yard work & they continuously build their nest in the most inconvenient places. Since the spiders mostly keep to themselves they can stick around.

It fasted, probably was going to molt, then became dehydrated from lack of eating & humidity?

I don't know a lot about raising spiders / tarantulas.
Several years ago a passing acquaintance of mine had a tarantula (I don't know what kind, or how old it was - a little bigger than half the size of my palm and black hair). It would fast because it would get ready to molt. During that time it wasn't getting the water it needed because it wasn't eating. He'd pour water in a sunk dish on one side of its aquarium & let a bit of it spill over into the mulch/bark stuff he had in the bottom. Apparently that was enough.
